Food DIY - Taco Seasoning

Taco Seasoning was one of the first DIY things I tried. My sister and I spent months talking about wanting to make more foods from scratch and we always mentioned taco seasoning. I don't know where either one of us came up with that (yes, probably Pinterest). So last fall I decided to finally do it. And it's super easy.

Ingredients

Use 2 TB in place of 1 store-bought packet. If you are just making plain tacos (as in, browning ground beef) you may need to add some water depending on the fat content in your meat. We rarely have just tacos, mostly using this in various taco-ish crockpot meals (or tonight I used some in some chicken/cream cheese taquitos which were delish).

This is one of the easiest things you can make yourself. Takes less than 5 minutes to mix up. I keep the recipe taped to the inside of the spice cupboard so I can easily make more when needed.
